Roasted, Grilled, or Grilled Asparagus

This classic preparation of roasted or grilled asparagus highlights the natural, earthy sweetness of this vibrant spring vegetable. It is a versatile, diabetes-friendly side dish that works equally well for a quick midweek dinner or as part of a sophisticated Sunday roast. By using high heat to quickly caramelise the spears, you achieve a tender interior and a slightly crisp exterior without the need for heavy sauces or butter.

Packed with fibre and essential vitamins, this healthy vegetable dish is finished with a simple spritz of fresh lemon juice to brighten the flavours. It is an excellent accompaniment to grilled fish, roast chicken, or a poached egg. Whether you prefer the charred notes from the barbecue or the consistent finish of the oven, this recipe provides a foolproof method for a nutritious homemade staple.

Ingredients for Roasted, Grilled, or Grilled Asparagus

  • 2 1/2 to 1.4kg asparagus, trimmed and peeled

  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

  • Salt to taste

  • Lemon wedges

How to make Roasted, Grilled, or Grilled Asparagus

  1. Preheat the oven to 232°C, preheat the grill or a gas grill, or start a charcoal or wood fire. If you're roasting or grilling, place the asparagus in a roasting pan and drizzle with a tablespoon or two of oil; sprinkle with salt. If you're grilling, brush the asparagus with oil and sprinkle with salt. Place in the oven, under the grill, or on the grill.

  2. Roast or grill, turning the spears once or twice, just until the thick part of the stalks can be pierced with a knife, 10 to 15 minutes. Grilling time will be shorter, taking 5 to 10 minutes total. Serve immediately or at room temperature, with lemon wedges.
